Our Spurs fans here in the Tavern are a happy bunch of late, and all the talk we’ve overheard at the bar is positive stuff.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino has got his side firing on all cylinders, and they ended Chelsea’ impressive unbeaten run last time out with a convincing 2-0 win over their London rivals.

Dele Alli has found his form, while Christian Eriksen continues to impress with his creativity from midfield. Spurs though know all too well it is important not to rest on their laurels, and they will be hoping for a successful January transfer window.

One place where clubs can always strengthen is in the midfield, where you need a variety of options in order to compete at the top.

Our landlord thinks that Spurs could well delve into the market this January, so here are THREE midfielders who could slot in nicely at White Hart Lane…

Iker Muniain

Bilbao star Muniain is the real deal and looks a top quality player over in La Liga.

Spurs do potentially lack a bit of quality in the wide midfield areas, and Muniain could be the man to provide that bit of spark they need.

Creative, quick, and with the ability to score crucial goals, Muniain would be an ideal fit for Spurs right now.

Mateo Kovacic

Croatian midfielder Kovacic is a player who is always on the fringes at Madrid, but has immense quality.

Kovacic would fit into Spurs no doubt about it. His ability to play in the middle as a bit of a defensive force, as well as his knack of bursting forward and causing chaos make him a top quality addition.

Marek Hamsik

Slovakian Hamsik has been one of the top midfielders in the Italian league for some time now, and a move to England is something many football fans have wanted to see for a while now.

He is strong on the ball, quick, and has the ability to run a game from the centre of the park.

Hamsik would be a quality addition to any team, so Spurs would need to stump up some pretty decent cash if they wanted to secure his services.
